Vegetation and topographic controls on sediment deposition and storage on gully beds in a degraded mountain area
(2009-05)
Active gully systems developed on highly weathered or loose parent material are an important source of runoff and sediment production in degraded areas. However, a decrease of land pressure may lead to a return of a partial ...
Mapping rainstorm erosion associated with an individual storm from InSAR coherence loss validated by field evidence for the Atacama Desert
(Wiley, 2020)
Extreme high-magnitude and low-frequency storm events in arid zones provide the necessary runoff to entrain sediments from source areas and therefore dictate the linkages between hillslopes and channels. Nevertheless, the ...
Sediment transport dynamics in a glacierized Andean basin: lessons from the Estero Morales, Chile
(2022)
Suspended and bedload transport dynamics on rivers draining glacierized basins depend on complex processes of runoff generation along with the degree of sediment connectivity and coupling at the basin scale. This thesis ...
Water erosion and connectivity analysis during a year with high precipitations in a watershed of Argentina
(IWA Publishing, 2016-06)
Soil erosion is a global concern because of its consequences for the environment and the economy of countries. In the Argentine Pampas Region, soil erosion process is a priority issue, although there is little information ...
Utilización de la conectividad hidrológica para evaluar la transferencia de metales entre sedimentos fluvialesHydrologic connectivity as a tool for the evaluation of metal transfer between river sediments
(Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Instituto de Geociências, 2017)
La conectividad hidrológica, definida como la transferencia de materia, energía y/u organismos, mediada por el
agua, dentro y entre los elementos del ciclo hidrológico, permite evaluar el efecto de la actividad antrópica ...
Potential accumulation of contaminated sediments in a reservoir of a high-Andean watershed: Morphodynamic connections with geochemical processes
(2015)
Rapid changes due to anthropic interventions in high-altitude environments, such as the Altiplano region in South America, require new approaches to understand the connections between physical and geochemical processes. ...
Reservoir and contaminated sediments impacts in high-Andean environments: Morphodynamic interactions with biogeochemical processes
(2014)
Rapid changes due to anthropic interventions in high-altitude environments, such as the Altiplano
region in South America, require new approaches to understand the connections between
physical and biogeochemical processes. ...
Suspended Sediments in Chilean Rivers Reveal Low Postseismic Erosion After the Maule Earthquake (Mw 8.8) During a Severe Drought
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2019)
We address the question of whether all large-magnitude earthquakes produce an erosion peak in the subaerial components of fluvial catchments. We evaluate the sediment flux response to the Maule earthquake in the Chilean ...
